Nurse Meredith Griffin runs St. Jude Hospital's emergency ward, the largest on the Pacific Northwest coast. A psychiatric nursing specialist, she's good at managing other people's problems but is less adept with her own. When a twenty-two-year-old woman is admitted to Emergency with severe lacerations that prove fatal, her death is labelled a suicide, but Meredith isn't convinced. Soon after, her boyfriend, Detective Leo Donnelly, attends the scene of a young woman with the same mysterious fatal injuries, and Meredith knows something is terribly wrong. As she tries to connect the dots, she quickly realises that everyone – in the hospital, the Catholic church and law enforcement – is hiding something, and she must put more than her job on the line to expose the killer before they strike again. A clever and compulsive crime thriller, The Scarlet Cross takes you deep into the dark secrets of institutional power and exposes the thin membrane between safety and peril.

The vision that young shepherd Stephen of Cloyes experiences on a hillside in France will launch him on a staggering journey: a children’s crusade to accomplish what grown men had failed to do and restore Jerusalem to Christendom.

Karleen Bradford blends adventure and insight in the story of a boy whose questions about his vision and ability to lead will instantly capture the interest of adolescent readers.
